Between pharmacy and nursing, which is better and has ...

I have been a pharmacist in Canada for almost thirty years now. The profession is changing rapidly. In my opinion there is increasing involvement and pressure on the way we do our job (and try to help patients) by government and other third party payersu2026 and this is not a good thing. If I had to do it again (and if I were less squeamish about bodily fluids) I would recommend nursing. There are less and less jobs for pharmacists, and the job market for nursing is always good. There are also so many diverse settings a nursing degree can be put to use in, and if you are not a fan of the bodily fluids as I am, you can move into administrative positions after a few years. With a little additional study, you can specialize into areas you are particularly interested in, or even earn Nurse Practioner designation, which here anyway means that you can work in a clinic and diagnose and prescribe as a doctor can. If I had a college-aged child who was contemplating a career in Pharmacy however, I can promise you that I would heartily discourage them.
